Thank you James! Always so good to hear from you. James has knitted and donated lots of variety here: Sweater, hats, scarf, mittens, cotton washcloths, and socks. Fabulous as always James, please keep up the good. Special thanks for nicely tagging your items with the size...much appreciated.

**Remember folks to avoid the use of white, off-white and ivory/beige. They're just too hard to keep clean, be they hats, mitts, scarves, squares etc.**

Where are You and Your Yarn From?

I'm trying to identify where everyone is from, partially for fun. Take a look at the map. Also, believe it will aid me in cases where we have several people with the same name. Please look at the lists of bloggers and non bloggers and see if I have the state you hail from. If not, please leave a comment and let me know.

Additionally, we've had help from Scotland, England, Germany Puerto Rico, Canada, and France! They don't appear on the map, but their help is still greatly appreciated.
